Abstract

Various embodiments of the invention provide a method, apparatus, system and computer readable medium for implementing a universal media interface and control protocol to control a universal media apparatus. The universal media interface and its control protocol facilitate communication, including issuance of generalized commands between a target device, such as an audio/video ("A/V") device and a universal music player, thereby enabling the target device to play music from different types of music servers and specialized server processes.
